2.13.2 Protection during commissioning and operation
Falling or violently ejected components
Falling and violently ejected components can cause serious injuries
and even death.
• Take appropriate protective measures to secure the danger
zone.
• Never step into the danger zone during operation.
2.13.3 Protection against dangerous movements
Unexpected movements
Residual energy in the system may cause serious injuries while
working with the product.
• Switch off the energy supply, ensure that no residual energy
remains and secure against inadvertent reactivation.
• Never rely solely on the response of the monitoring functions
(dynamic pressure monitoring with pressure sensors) to avert
danger. Assume that the drive movement is faulty as long is the
installed monitors are not effective, since the effect depends on
the control and the current operating state of the drive.
Perform maintenance, modification and attachment work
outside of the danger zone defined by the movement range.
• To avoid accidents and/or material damage, human access to
the movement range of the machine must be restricted. Limit/
prevent accidental access for people in this area due through
technical safety measures. The protective cover and protective
fence must be rigid enough to withstand the maximum possible
movement energy. EMERGENCY STOP switches must be easily
and quickly accessible. Before starting up the machine or
automated system, check that the EMERGENCY STOP system is
working. Prevent operation of the machine if this protective
equipment does not function correctly.
